9h ninehours

9h ninehours is a capsule hotel brand  operating  in major cities in Japan. Its capsule design, spatial design and operation redefine the concept of a capsule hotel, offering new stay value. 

Among the many 9h ninehours  projects, we were responsible for Kamata in Tokyo, which is located close to Haneda, Hakata in Fukuoka Prefecture and Nagoya. In Kamata, we handled the architecture and interior design of the entire facility, while in Nagoya and Hakata, we were responsible for the interior design and architectural design of the penthouse section.  Although the capsules are the same, they have been designed to provide a different stay experience based on the distinct needs of each city, with a particular focus on the lounge as a unique area.  Nagoya has a cafe and rooftop lounge, Hakata has a large inner green garden and lounge on the top floor, and Kamata has individual desk spaces in the entrance  space, all of which we designed. 

By providing different spaces, we have endeavoured to make staying at 9h ninehours in each city an enjoyable experience and have been  committed to refining the brand's hotel accommodation. We hope that we have been able to express that creativity is at the  heart  of the 9h ninehours brand.
